They took a small group of people and went to a biker rally to protest. From the article it appears they were ignored, until one of them kicked a bike going by. It seems everybody on a bike took exception to that and the protestors had to "be moved to a safe area" by the police to protect them. Did they not realize that doing a stupid thing like that in the middle of the Sturgis rally was akin to entering a Tiger's cage and slapping it on the nose while wearing a meat shirt?

So, when's he going to be released on bail. Several hundred people wanna know...

Call a social worker

It would be funny to release them and tell them to call a social worker if the bikers decide to "reason" with him about his behavior. Then after the social worker comes out turn him and the social worker over to OAN reporters who can ask: "Do you still think defunding the police is in the publics best interest?"

Overrated bikes.

I doubt it. Some of those chrome pieces they seem to hang all over them Hardly Dangerous bikes probably fell off. That's why the biker was so pissed. That's just a guess mind you.

Tell us more!

Usually people who cant afford one say things like that, but we know that’s not the case with you, so I’m looking forward to your sean-level expertise/ critique.

I think the tech term is farkle, but trumpedo will verify and elucidate.

Slow, expensive, shit handling and unreliable.

And the people who ride them all the time are hard of hearing and tend to talk too loud in all situations.

Most of the modern Harley scene is similar to city people who dress up like cowboys, except these are retired insurance agents who have fantasies about being a member of the Hell's Angels.

Soundsl like Harley owners intimidate coati on a regular bases.

Nahh, retired insurance agents tend not to be intimidating, even on the baseball field.

I even had an experience with two members of the Hell's Angels once where they crashed a party, drank some electric Kool Aid, and then got hysterically silly listening to a recording of the Firesign Theater.

Like i said. Money.

Kowboi was “ having his ass measured” for a Harley, but then was looking at used Indians once he saw the price tag on the hd.

Do you know how you can tell if someone is a motorcycle rider?





By their limp.

 

[Bad_Egg]

Your behavior to those you insult suggests otherwise.

^^^ Sounds like I have violated the "safe space" of this poor right-wing troll.

Thoughts and prayers to yet another perpetual victim within Trump's cult of victimhood.

Ain't it ironic that punk bullies see themselves as victims?

Drop the word "expensive" from the above line and you have the summary line from RightGuide's last exit interview.

Yeah, the word "expensive" certainly does not apply to people whose main form of currency is canned corn.

But canned corn is an approved item for EBT payment, according to "Cornager".

That's precisely it. Form over function. Gotta look good for that 4 mile ride to the tavern and back. And don't forget the HD branded toilet paper. Ya just gotta have that.

Way back when, I used to regularly put a couple of hundred miles on the odometer per trip on mine. Most of the people I know, do the same, long distance road trips are very common.

Plus, just check out all them folks at Sturgis who "somehow" managed to get there on their hogs...

If you check on it you'll find that a lot of those folks who "somehow" manage to get there do so by shipping or trailering the bikes, then riding a few miles to the parties and taverns. I will acknowledge there are some who actually put miles (a few do a lot of miles) on their HD's. And since most people tend to gather with those of a like mind I don't doubt that those you know do ride long road trips. But there are as many if not more who ride 5 miles a week, in black leather acting out a fantasy of being a biker; all the while disparaging anyone on any other make. It's like riding a sportbike. Many who do are reasonable people but there are some who are plain hooligans.


I've been astride a bike since I was 17, 53 years, a dozen different bikes and over 450,000 miles ago. I will be until I can't hold the damn thing up, then I'll go to a sidecar or trike. I've had some bad, painful experiences on a bike (most were my fault) but also some fabulous ones. All I can say is I'm addicted and won't stop.

I had a 1983 Yamaha Venture I put 83,000 miles on. I bought it used. It was smoother riding, twice as reliable with 1/3 more horsepower and cost a lot less than a comparable used HD. So why in the world would I buy an HD? For the chrome or the prestige? I want nor need either.
